He is never fighting againI actually expect it to be on a good card next time.
And would still loose to a 155lb erYes, of course it did. Wanna know why?
CONOR MCGREGOR IS ON STEROIDS
More realistic explanationMy theory - Chandler was training his ass off and getting ready for the fight, and Conor wasn't doing sh!t but coke and partying. As the fight got close Conor realized he wasn't even close to being ready to fight and pulled out so he doesn't destroy what ever is left of his MMA marketability ..
Yes, of course it did. Wanna know why?

#nothingburgerConor saw the predictions around 500K buys and his ego dropped out
I can't see how this helps anything sales wise to have people distrust that the fights will actually happen.
Especially when it comes to travel plans.
UFC has basically said:
Attention to our wealthy and otherwise big spenders who travel to see our events:
You can not trust us to deliver the event we initially promise and any big exciting event could go to shit and we will be extremely dishonest about it and attempt to fuck you over by waiting to reveal the truth until it is too late for you to cancel your travel plans and be reimbursed.
Many years ago it was very easy to attend UFC events for free just buying double the tickets you wanted with Dana's early presale code and then easily reselling the extras for double face, but UFC has raised the face value of tickets so high it really prevents opportunity for resale.
Of course you are entitled to a refund of the tickets if the main event changes, but it does majorly screw over people that have booked flights and hotels well in advance of the event only to have the rug pulled on them. Especially in a case like this where it looks very likely they knew this fight wasn't happening for a very long time and didn't announce it, if it was ever even booked at all.
He got injured and can’t fight. It is what it is.
